NaNo Day 6: 10,020
Met today’s word count goal and will get more words tonight. NaNo on track. I’m doing a lousy job with the story, and I think it could be so much better. I’d rather have a stronger first draft, but I just read the How to Think Sideways lesson about fixing your story on the fly, so I’m going to attempt to do a little of that as I go. One of the nice things about yWriter is the opportunity to make scene notes. I can, when I know I’m screwing something up, make a quick note and keep right on working.
This is a useful tool. I don’t feel as if I’m making great strides in improvement as I work with Sideways and my writing, but I can sense incremental improvement. At least that’s progress in the right direction.
Hugs on feeling it could be so much stronger. I usually love while I’m writing–it’s afterward when I look at it and think *what have I done!!!* Bleh to revisions!
